Mind-blowing Warzone bug puts players in third-person and it\u2019s ruining tournaments ActivisionPerhaps Warzone\u2019s wildest glitch yet is forcing players to have an out-of-body experience by forcing a third-person perspective and all but ruining high-stakes tournaments. Bugs have certainly been plentiful since Caldera arrived in the Warzone Pacific update. We\u2019ve seen everything from invisible Operator skins to magic bushes and even lobbies packed full of cheaters. But in a $20,000 tournament on December 29, we may have seen the most outrageous glitch to date. Seemingly at random, Twitch streamer \u2018Ferkull\u2019 was forced out of the standard first-person perspective. After a journey across the island, spectating various teams without explanation, he regained control of his Operator. This time, though, he was playing Warzone from a third-person point of view. \u201cWhat just happened?\u201d the streamer asked three hours into the competition. After landing at Peak and wiping out some early challengers, Ferkull decided to use his Recon Drone to scout the rest of the POI. It was this harmless action that triggered the first step of the unprecedented bug. \u201cAm I dead? I\u2019m under the f***ing map,\u201d he said as his camera was thrown about Caldera. Every few seconds his view shifted without explanation. At one stage he had clear view of an enemy team, then he was thrust into the gulag for no discernable reason. There was even a moment where the streamer latched onto a killstreak. As a Cluster Strike was called in, his camera decided to morph inside and descend onto the map. While it was non-stop laughter in Twitch chat, the player\u2019s teammates grew concerned. \u201cCan we get banned for this? one of them asked as the $20K tournament continued. Before the team backed out to try and restart the lobby, things only got more out of hand. Ferkull\u2019s camera switched perspective once again, though now, he was back to his original spot on Peak. Rather than playing from a first-person POV, however, he now had control of his Operator from a third-person view. Running, slide-canceling, aiming down sights, it all worked from this unique angle. \u201cI\u2019m playing in third-person,\u201d the streamer yelled at the top of his lungs in complete disbelief. The camera was clunky, with half the screen phasing through the ground. But that didn\u2019t stop the Trio from laughing, even with big money on the line. Im playing in 3rd person in a $20k Tourney ayo is this a reset or somethin? \ud83d\ude02@RealChainGames pic.twitter.com\/jMw5P2rTEd\u2014 Ferkull (@ScotFerkull) December 29, 2021 Unfortunately for them, the competition continued to roll on. No restart was allowed, so the third-person game was officially in the books. There\u2019s no telling if the bug is repeatable, but Recon Bugs could be the cause of some serious headaches if the issue becomes prevalent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
